1. Carrier route letters that are not automation-compatible and barcoded (DMM 201.3.0) are mailable at the flat-size prices (DMM

   243.6.0). Mailers may not pay carrier route flat prices and claim the DDU discount for letter-size pieces.

2. Subtract $0.001 for each letter that complies with the full-service Intelligent Mail option requirements.

3. For pieces weighing more than 3.3 ounces, each piece is subject to both a per piece price and a per pound price. Multiply the number

   of pieces in the mailing by per piece price. Multiply the number of pounds of the mailing by per pound price. Add both totals.

4. Per piece price for carrier route letters and automation letters that weigh more than 3.3 ounces but less than (or equal to) 3.5 ounces

   includes a discount that equals the applicable flat-size price (3.3 ounces or less) minus the applicable letter piece price (3.3 ounces or less).

1. Flat-size pieces with certain characteristics (see DMM 301.1.3 and 301.1.4) are subject to not flat-machinable or parcel prices.

2. Subtract $0.001 for each flat that complies with the full-service Intelligent Mail option (not available for Saturation) requirements.

3. For carrier route flats with a detached address label, add $0.017 per piece.

4. For pieces weighing more than 3.3 ounces, each piece is subject to both a per piece price and a per pound price. Multiply the number

   of pieces in the mailing by per piece price. Multiply the number of pounds of the mailing by per pound price. Add both totals.
